        Hey, there are a few beanie babies that are actually worth something now. That said, they’re only worth something because they’re rare, most people that had them didn’t keep them in an acrylic case for 30yrs, and iirc their value is ironically tied to manufacturing defects.

      It’s actually not. A lot of people do absolutely nothing for retirement, which is infinitely worse.
